Stellantis will bring the electric Fiat Topolino to
the U.S. next year.
The announcement made at Art Week in Miami by Fiat CEO Olivier Francois, who is also Stellantis global CMO, comes less than a week after President Donald
Trump expressed interest in bringing tiny cars to the U.S.
A Stellantis spokeswoman told CNBC that
Fiat’s announcement was unrelated to Trump’s comments and that the automaker has been gauging customer interest for the Topolino.
The tiny Topolino is actually not a car
but is categorized as an all-electric quadricycle, according to Stellantis, and has a top speed of 28 miles per hour.
Francois says the new Topolino is truly “pure
joy in motion,” a riff on an old Fiat tagline.

The new Topolino, which translates to “little mouse” in Italian, pays homage to the original Fiat 500
Topolino, a popular model in Europe from 1936 to 1955.
Currently available in Europe and South America, the vehicle drew the attention of U.S. consumers after appearances at the
Greenwich Concours d'Elegance and the 2025 New York and LA auto shows.
Fiat partnered with international artist Romero Britto to unveil a one-of-a-kind Fiat Topolino
during Art Week in Miami called the “Brittolino.” The Britto-designed Fiat Topolino will be on display at Grand Salon located at the Britto Palace, the largest art studio in the
world.
Britto, the founder of The Happy Art Movement, is an artist, painter and sculptor known for his vibrant style. His art features bold patterns and bright colors and has
been showcased in the most prestigious galleries and museums in more than 120 countries.
U.S. consumers can sign up for
updates for the Fiat Topolino.
